    Resolved [RESOLVED] Username and password

    Is it possible to make a program, that can set passwords on folders if it is running in the background?

    So etc. if now i open i my schoolprojectfolder, there will come a box, where you must type in a username and password. If the username or password is wrong, det folder wont open?

    Not really. Besides, if someone were to kill your application what would happen? It doesn't make sense to have a standard folder that is only protected while your program is running.

    You basically need to encrypt the folders and have your progam decrypt them.

    Why not just use something like TrueCrypt- its free and secure.
